A Peer Recovery Specialist (PRS) walks beside others who are navigating the same struggles I once faced. I offer understanding, hope, and guidance born from lived experience. It’s about creating a safe space without judgment, where people can be honest about their pain, their progress, and their purpose.
Peer Recovery Specialists don’t lead from a place of authority... we lead from experience, from empathy, and from evidence that recovery is not just possible, but sustainable. As a Certified Peer Recovery Specialist (C-PRS) in the state of Virginia, I have been thriving in long-term recovery from poly-substance use and co-occurring mental health challenges since January 2017. Since 2020, I’ve served with a behavioral health and MAT/SU outpatient team at a local Community Service Board, facilitating WRAP and APPR groups and holding space for people of all ages and walks of life — from church groups and youth camps to jail ministries.
I’ve been honored to share my story and message of hope with organizations including AA, NA, Celebrate Recovery, and Good News Jail Ministry. Beyond my professional work, I’m also a passionate event planner, having hosted two successful recovery concerts with more than 300 attendees and resource partners — because recovery is worth celebrating!
Today, as an active member of RASAP and the Harm Reduction Committee, I continue to advocate for recovery, mental health awareness, and community connection. My mission is to always be a voice of hope, using both my lived experience and professional training to help others see that recovery is not only possible — it’s powerful.
You can expect a lot of communication and connection.
As your Peer Recovery Specialist, I’ll walk beside you — not ahead of you — through every stage of your journey. I’ll share parts of my own lived experience to show you that recovery is possible, no matter where you’re starting from.
Together, we’ll:
- Build a relationship based on trust, transparency, and respect
- Set meaningful goals for your personal recovery journey
- Develop practical steps toward achieving those goals
- Create accountability while giving you space to grow at your own pace
- Use encouragement, understanding, and shared experience to keep hope alive
Peer recovery coaching isn’t about telling you what to do — it’s about walking with you as you discover your own path to healing and freedom.
Ready to Begin?
Whether you’re seeking personal recovery, family healing, organizational support, OR want to start the process of becoming a Peer yourself, See Thru Recovery is here to help you start the journey.
The length of a Peer Recovery program depends entirely on the individual and their personal goals. Everyone’s recovery journey looks different — some people may work with a Peer Specialist for a few months, while others may continue for a year or longer.
Progress is not measured by time, but by growth, connection, and stability.
At See Thru Recovery, support continues for as long as it’s helpful, and the pace is always guided by you — your needs, your goals, and your readiness for the next steps.
Common Questions from those that love an addict.
Please reach us via EMAIL if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Helping an addict can look like:
-Offering rides to treatment, meetings, or appointments
-Providing emotional support without rescuing
-Saying NO to money, housing, or favors that support use
-Encouraging professional help or peer support
-Holding firm boundaries while still expressing love
Helping says: “I care about you too much to protect your addiction.”
Enabling an addict can look like:
-Giving money that can be used for substances
-Lying, covering up, or making excuses for behavior
-Paying bills repeatedly while nothing changes
-Allowing use in the home to “keep them safe”
-Rescuing them from legal, financial, or relational consequences
Enabling says: “I’ll carry the cost of your addiction so you don’t have to.”
My approach to goal-setting is to help clients identify specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals. I also work with clients to create an action plan and provide accountability to ensure they stay on track to achieve their goals.
Confidentiality is of utmost importance in my coaching practice. I adhere to the International Coach Federation's (ICF) Code of Ethics, which includes strict guidelines for maintaining client confidentiality.

Below are answers to common questions we are often asked either at meetings or prior to attending meetings:
The way a sober home answers these questions could determine if they are right for you or a loved one.
Do your research!!!
Not all houses are good houses, even if they are CERTIFIED!
Does a supervisor live on the property?
Is the residence coed? Experts agree that newly recovered addicts, especially women, are vulnerable. Dating and relationships in early sobriety can focus on recovery, so coed homes are not the best early recovery environment.
What will happen if I relapse? Do they have individual relapse protocols that include contacts and alternative housing arrangements?
Have there been any overdoses or deaths? Is the staff trained in CPR?
How often do you drug test? Are tests random? What kind of tests? Is there a charge for tests?
Do you bill insurance? Sober homes are not licensed to offer medical care and cannot bill insurance for services, including rent.
How much is the rent? How is it paid? What does the rent include? What is the refund policy?
Are there rules about pocket change and money transfers? Experts warn insured residents to be leery of free rent, gift cards, cellphones, gym memberships, and other inducements if linked to attendance at an intensive outpatient program (IOP) or the provision of urine samples.
Do you have an ownership interest or receive referral fees from an intensive outpatient program (IOP) or lab?
Have there been any complaints filed against the sober home or its employees, including code violations?
How much training, education, and clean time do you require of employees, including house managers, and do you hire CPRS?
Are properties and vehicles that transport clients insured? Are clients allowed to drive vehicles?

What if I Still Have Court Dates?
What if I Still Have Court Dates?
If you still have pending charges, court dates, or possible criminal issues that may arise while you are in rehab, the best thing to do is STILL GO!!
Tell the admissions person that does your intake about all of them. They will more than likely be willing to transport you to the courthouse on those dates. And if you get any jail time, you are usually welcomed back into the recovery program when you get out of jail.
